A sister store to the Blanding Family Dollar, pictured above, is currently under construction at 50 East Center Street in Monticello. Work began on the facility early in September. Officials from Family Dollar estimate that the new store will open after a 90-day construction period. This means the facility will open near the beginning of the new year. Staff photo
